And of course we didn't forget to include some juicy bits of talk that's going through the grapevine. Find out what the latest is in Emjedah with all that's been happening there. It's all right here, right now, just for you our dear readers. Whether you read for information or just for fun.........or even if you want to use this paper to smack someone over the head for not reading it, get comfortable in your favorite reading chair (or whatever you use to sit on) and enjoy this month's issue of the Tribune.

Spurian most likely to bathe in Dragon Ale

1. Cuervo
2. Aeslyn
3. Nibiru
4. Thiarin'a
5. Weimer

Hrm, nothing wrong with bathing in ale...right? I wouldn't do it but ale is bad for Leuians, bad I tell you! Poison even! These five, thin skinned though some of them may be, don't care! Sponge ale bath anyone? Maybe they found a secret grotto somewhere with a fountain that has ale running through it and not water, poor Thiarin'a, they wouldn't be able to get through the door. Maybe the big flying tater is the one who hauls in the buckets to leave by the door once all the splashing and frolicking is done by the others.

Easiest place to hunt

1. Ork Fields
2. Clock Tower
3. Skeleton Closet
4. Novice Mercenaries
5. TSC

I guess it would depend on what you were hunting for exactly now wouldn't it? That is all I will say on that without going into any more detail. The favorites ....Orks....they breed faster than Leuians...always a nice healthy herd to be thinned out. Then there is the clock tower with those pesky little orklings..gah! I told you the orks breed fast..someone needs to get all of them out of the tower already and back into the woods where they belong! The skeleton closet is next, surely a haven for Psions, both young and old. The Merc's and TSC are also favorites.

Aradath's most boring locale

1. Rinanni's Temple
2. AGC
3. Any Temple
4. Pride Hall
5. Wolftrap

The temple of Rinanni along with 'any' temple is considered pretty boring, unless you happen to stumble upon some juicy conversation taking place or intrude upon a temple meeting. The Anything goes club, Pride hall and Wolftrap got votes. Maybe they should combine the buildings, purposes and titles...The Anything Goes Pride Hall Wolftrap Club..

Worst dressed

1. Kagee
2. Aliyah
3. Dumb
4. Scabby
5. Thogorgoo

I don't know why some of you voted for these citizens...Scabby should have been first and Thogorgoo with his...drooling bucket worn around the neck is enough to make my fur go instantly limp. Disgusting! And it's almost full! This is making me too ill so I just can't write anymore on this topic. Kagee, Aliyah and Dumb...consider yourselves lucky.

Biggest or littlest town square bum (take 2)

1. Aliyah
2. Nutmeg
3. That big mouthed Raven
4. Litorth
5. Callik

Aliyah is the newest official TS Bum, one of many anyway. Nutmeg comes next followed by what I think is Aeslyn's yappy little squawk box of a pet. Of course Aeslyn didn't make it on here but Litorth did. Go Litorth! Just when you make your daily jaunt to TS make sure you don't sit on Aliyah! Don't want to give her another reason to scream about someone being blind who really isn't now do we? Callik rounds off the list...it is a pity he hasn't shot the raven yet and put it out of its misery. Having Aeslyn for a master surely mustn't be easy.

The Finger Wigglers
Leyara Rin

Shay'ra, the one who had such a difficult time staying conscious at the Tournament of Magic has the lead as Guild Mistress. Good thing she didn't drink before her matches began. The sleepy Frontacian Rhoube is next, maybe someone switched his sickness cure with a bottle of sleeping potion. Landoo, and Guaire are next in third and fourth place. Darktalon and Ragarn are tied although Darktalon still is hanging on tightly to fifth, but to what I don't know. The feisty drag-al Gossamer is next and another Spinner, Bolan is not far behind. Eron, another sleepy one comes next in ninth place trailed by Scruple, who Callik thinks sounds like Timor but little does he realize that he sounds just like the Sanene mutt he so frequently visits with within Spur's gates.

1. Shay'ra Magicka the Human
2. Rhoubhe Thurhieval the Frontacian
3. Landoo Astroligone the Frontacian
4. Guaire Amalasan the Frontacian
5. Darktalon Deepslash the Leuian
6. Ragarn Lazlo the Frontacian

News
Leyara Rin

* Syntrik recently was captured in Emjedah for illegally entering the city, lets hope he also loses a finger as Changeman's Firian friend Callik did when he was imprisoned after his plans to release the Firian slave failed to work.

* A source has told me that Rylek has decided to keep wearing the boots he has always worn, even though TS was flooded by the sewers. He was heard saying he likes the squishy sounds they make when he wiggles his toes, also said the smell isn't that bad either.

* Dajeda is now under Emjedah's control, there is now a crested black flag outside the gate. The flag has a crest on it with a bright blue bolt of lighting streaking across a field of red and black.

* Several slaves bound with Bluesteel chains still dangle from their arms outside Emjedah's second gate. They whimper frequently but to no avail as no one yet dares to come aid them.

* Kazil the Firian bounty hunter was seen west of TS just a short while ago, he was getting an earful from Kraggon, Tuftor, Saberus, Guadior, Valoria, Gurrtog, and several others. As is typical, there was lots of name calling and mud slinging. I was shocked to hear Kraggon actually yelling for guards, but it also appears as if they ignored him.

* Changeman was seen several days ago down south of TS. Weldoian was present and Callik was also there being tended to by the Secian Aliyah, the Spurian criminal showed up seconds after she left for the healer shack and foolishly stood there where anyone could get a good look. My source told me that he whispered to Weldoian and Aliyah both that the exile was right next to them but they made no move to seek out guards. He managed to slip into the shadows and after my source began calling for guards, he told me that Aliyah made it clear as she yelled that she just didn't care and told my source that he 'must be blind'. Quite a sad state of affairs when Aliyah indirectly calls someone a liar she has never even met.

* And this next bit of news was sent in by..a little bird..but not the same 'little bird' that usually sends things to us, this one was quite the bold and daring 'little bird' who knew he was taking a chance by sending this to me, but decided to do it anyway. He said he listened to two female Leuians, who shall at this time remain nameless, tell of the love they had for each other in their temple just a few days ago. He wrote to me that he was thinking he had at first mistaken their words and asked them in what sense did they mean, and to his shock, they told him they were .... dating and wished to Khat'sara in the future. One spoke of how the other had caught her eye as soon as she stepped foot in Spur. As horrifying, shocking, amusing as this is, the 'Little Bird' who shared this with me is completely honorable through and through, as to why he shared this with me, well, that is anyone's guess.
